Chris – who has been styling Kim for years and is one of her best friends – announced his “relationship” with Lukas with a collection of photos from their trip to Punta de Minta.
In the first image, the pair were seen riding a four-wheeler on a trail, while wearing helmets, bandanas and goggles.
In another, Chris and Lukas posed for a shirtless selfie in their swimming trunks on the beach.
Chris captioned the post “Joyride,” and tagged the St. Regis Punta Mita Resort.
Lukas shares the same shots and wrote, “le mejor,” in Spanish – which translates to “the best.”
The pair received plenty of support in the comments, with celebrity makeup artist Mary Phillips writing: “IG official.”
Lukas’ Euphoria costar Maude Apatow posted a trio of heart-eye emojis and YouTuber Claudia Sulewski added: “I am screeammmingggg.”
Lukas commented on Chris’ post, too, penning, “Buenos,” with heart-eye emojis.
Sources confirmed to Just Jared that Chris and Lukas are romantically involved.
It’s unclear when they reportedly started dating.
AUDITION FROM HELL
Lukas made headlines in 2020 after a director slammed his “s***y” apartment during a Zoom audition.
The director was recorded saying: “These poor people live in these tiny apartments. Like I’m looking at his background, and he’s got his TV and you know.”
Lukas was then seen wincing, waiting a moment and dropping the bombshell: “Yeah, unmuted.”

He added: “I know, it’s a s***ty apartment. That’s why give me this job, so I can get a better one!”
The director apologized instantly, replying: “Oh my God, I am so, so sorry. I’m mortified.”
Lukas reassured the man: “Listen, I’m living in a four-by-four box. It’s fine, just give me the job, and we’ll be fine.”
However, in a move that suggested he didn’t get the job, Lukas did later put the footage – which he’d recorded – on Instagram.
He captioned the clip: “If youre a s**t talking director make sure to mute ur mic on zoom mtgings.”
KIM’S GLAM SQUAD
Meanwhile, Chris is one of Kim’s closest confidantes and part of her glam squad.
Back in June, the SKIMS founder paid tribute to him for his 38th birthday.
“Happy Birthday @chrisappleton1!!!!” Kim wrote, alongside a photo of them together.
“You make going through this glam life so much fun! I’ve seriously never met anyone that’s as hard-working as you!
“Have the best birthday. I love you.”
Kim followed with other snaps showing Chris styling her hair while sitting in her glam chair.
The 41-year-old also posted shots of them on set during various photoshoots, and one of Chris accompanying her and her makeup artist, Mario Dedivanovic, on her private jet.
The trio posed for a pic while holding copies of Kim’s famed March 2022 Vogue magazine cover during the trip.
